oilier.
Between the hours of eleven and
twelve o’clock on Monday night,
four or five pistol shots, firefi in rapid
succession, and followed by tho cry
of fire, startled the inhabitants of the
I entral part of the city, who rushed
into the streets lo find that the dwell
ing of Georgia Ann Flagg, a well-
known colored character of the town,
on Flint street, was on fire. The
livin’ was under good headway before
the alarm was given, and by tho time
the tire tbparlmcnl arrived the entire
ro <f of the huil ling was in a blaze.
Upon the east side of the burning
building was the dwelling of Wm. Har
rison. colored, and on the west side, at a
distance of thirty five or forty feet,
the dwelling of Mr. Joseph Richard
son—all frame structures. With reas
onable promptness and diligence upon
the put of the fire d.-parlroent the
tl .mes could have been kept confined
to the house in which they originated,
hut Indore a stream was raised to ar-
rr*t their progress they had reacbod
II itrisqn’s dwelling oa one side, and
Mr. Richardson’* kitchen on the other.
Ilnrri-on's house was soon enveloped
hv the tkiuif, and the kitchen of Mr.
Hi,'hardsell was pulled down by the
hook and ladder company iu order to
save his dwelling, which stood in
clo-e proximity and lnrely escaped.
The fire department stmcl lobe
out of joint generally. ‘ E tglo No. 2
was not a* prompt as usual, and even
tin* hook anil ladder hoys were a little
ate in getting to work. I hronateeska
took tier stand at the cistern on Pine
street, in front of the Barnes House,
and her hose was laid and Ilia pipe-
in n n were in position in good time,
hut for some reason the engine failed
to raise a stream until all tlio danger
wait over. Wtr lure heard the cause
of the failure upon the part of tho en
gine attributed to different causes, and
will not undertake to sla'C or discuss
any nt ilietn, for fear we might do
some one an unintentional injustice.
The firemen themselves differ in opin
ion as to the cau*c ol tlm unfortunate
ilel.iy, an I the Xnv* and Adakrti-xr
will leave the nutter for thrill In set
tle for themselves.
Georgia Ann Flagg and roost of tho
i miatos of h?r house were at the col-
oreit minstrel performance at Tift’*
Hall when the lire broke out, and very
tittle, if any thing, was saved from the
house. . Harrison saved his furniture.
Tin re *va* $530 i isuranca on the fur
niture of Georgia Ann Flagg, and
$900 on the dwelling of llarrison.
NOTES.
—Harry Kendall did noble work on
the roof of Mr. Hichard«on’>i dwelling.
Tit,; blankets that were hang over the
exposed end ot the building and kept
saturated with water’ by Harry and
others Fared it troin the consuming
flame.
—Georgia Ann Flagg was perfectly
frantic during the fire, and bad to be
held by tier friends, who thought that
she would ru-h madly Into the flames
and be cremated.
—Itili Weeks, a son of Georgia
Ann Flagg, helped to hold his mother
during the excitement. A" dog ran up
and attempted to bito her while
sh • was struggling to release herself.
This so exasperated Bob that he drew
his pistol and flrcil two shots at the
dog. When Marshal Westbrook laid
hands on him he resisted, and refused
at first to give up his pistol, but he
wa* pr imptly arrested and taken to
the guard house all tho same.
—Tommie Nelson rushed in be
tween the fire and Mr. Richardson’s
dwelling, and got in some good and
timely work with a Babcock ex
tinguisher.
—The “Bucket Brigade” and the
Hook and ladder Company saved
Mr. Richardson’s dwelling.
—Well might Mr. Richardson have
cried, “Save me from my friends."
They ru-hed into his house and car
tied out his furniture and tore up
things generally in spite of all that he
eoiilil do or nay.

Fire.
The two-siory dwelling on the Ed
wards place,about a mile from the city,
was dost roved by fire Saturday night.
The fire wa« discovered and the alarm
sounded at about half-past seven
o’clock, to which the fire department
prompt ly responded. As soon as it
was discovered that the burn
ing building was outside the
city, however, and that no
possible aid could be rendered
by them,the willing firemen [return
ed with their engines to their re
spective quarters. Tbe Ed wards place
was recently purchased by Dr. P. L.
Hilsman, upon whom the loss of the
building and contents falls. We learn
that several hundred bushels of corn,
and oilier property of less value, was
in the house. We did not learn Ihe
origin of the fire, nor whether the
property was insured.

TUB PUBLIC SCHOOL QUESTION,
our State Reboot commissioner and
Leading citizens Take Counell
Together.
Dr. G. J. Orr, Stale School Com
missioner, being In the city, quite a
number of onr trading citizens mot,
him by invitation at the office of
Cnpt. Richard Hobbs’Inst night, fora
discussion of the public school ques
tion.
Dr. Orr addressed the meeting at
considerable length, and advocated
most earnestly the adoption of tho
public school system and the estab
lishment of graded public schools.
His line of argument was sustained by
statistics aud by reference to the pro
gress that has been made wherever tho
public school system has boon adopt
ed in the Slate. He also demonstrat
ed by figures, based upon actual expe
rience, that education had not only
been improved and enlarged under the
public school system, but that it hail
been cheapened.
Dr. Orr’s talk was informal, hut
highly interesting to those In
terested upon the subject of educa
tion, and was rcplt tc witli valuable in
formation as to the cost of maintain
ing public schools in different cities in
the State.
We are led to believo from expres
sions that were made in tho meeting
last night, that some of our leading
citizens have become interested upon
the public school question, and that
steps will be at onco taken for the es
tablishment of a public school in
Albany.
Dr. Orr promised to visit our city
again and address the masses upon tbe
subject of education and tho public
school system now in operation in
other cities in the State, at such lime
in the future as may he desired.

to the AtlanU Constitution be true,
which we have no reason to doubt.
Brunswick, December 11. — The
Brunswick & Albany Railroad will
reorganize under the new purchase on
the 19th Inst- Strong patties now
have bought this road, and an
important meeting will be held at that
time. Mr. Fred Wolffe, the Seligtnans
of New York, Judge 0. A. Lochranc,
and a representative of tho German
bondholders, who were the original
owners of the road, will be present. It
is the purpose of the present owners
to build connecting links so as to
have a continuous line from Bruns
wick, Ga., to Memphis, Tenn n with a
branch road to Columbus, Ga. The
patties who have tho Brunswick &
Albany Railroad are amply able to
make this a first-class line, and as
they will operate in connection with
the Erlangcr syndicate, tliey will have
unlimited capital at their back, both
in this country and in Europe. It Is
understood to bo the purpose of the
parties interested in these lines to put
mi, as soon as the line is complete
through to Memphis, new lirst-class
steamers to run regular trips across the
Atlantic. •

CONFERENCE NOTES.
Rev. H. R. Felder, known, admired
and much loved by the people of Al
bany, is present st tho Con ereucc, and
is welcomed by all our citizen*. His
preseneo brings joy and gladness to
many of our homes.
Tho church and people of Albany
arc, of course, exercised as to who
shall bo their preacher for 1883. It is
gratifying to stalo that tho church,
with otto or two exceptions, are clam
orous for tho return of Rev. A. M.
Williams.
It was Rev. J. M. Austin who
preached the much complimented ser
mon of Tuesday night, and not Dr. J.
O. A. Clark, as we announced through
mistake.
There is one member of the Confer
ence who lias been itinerating thirteen
years, and whose appointments hare
always been on the border of the Con-
fcrenco —on the boundary lines—has
never been in tho centre.
Ono nico feature of tho Conference
is tho post office in the rear of the
church,conducted by Miss Janie Wes
ton and Miss Mamie Christian, at which
the preachers mail their letters and
receive their mail. Tho young ladies
had Several letters yesterday unclaim
ed, and they said if they were not
called for Boon they would have to
open ail letters of single and newly
married preachers.
Few outside of tho Methodist church
understand tho way the preachers’ ap
pointments are made. The authority
and responsibility of these art vested
by law in the Bishop. He consti
tutes, however, the Presiding Elders of
the different districts his board of ad
visers. These, when assembled, arc
called tho - Bishop’s Cabinet They
meet at the Bishop’s office, which is
at the residenco of Capt S. B. Weston,
at 3 o’clock p. m., ami hold an after
noon and a night session. The Pre
siding Elders are expected lobe posted
on all things touching the demands
of the different churches, and the
qualifications and necessities of the
preachers. Everything is carefully
considered, and, generally speaking,
very few mistakes are made. Tbe
best feature, perhaps, of tho itinerancy
is tho fact that no church is left with
out a pastor and no pastor without a
charge.
Rcv.J. O. Branch preached Thurs
day night to a densely crowded house,
much to the delight and edification
of all.
Bishop Cavanaugh and wife arrived
Tuesday evening, and are the guests of
Capt. 8. R. Weston. The Bishop, al
though in his S2d year, showed but
little fatigue, aud looked as robust
and fresh as many men who nre much
younger. He does not have the ap
pearance of a man over sixty years.
The train on the Central road was
greatly behind time Tuesday evening.
It brought iu a large majority of-tbe
members of the Conference, iho de
lay was caused on the Montgomery
end of tha road.
The train containing a number of
delegates which left Macon Monday
night, became disabled twenty in lies
this side of Macon, and the passengers
did not • arrive here until Tuesday
night
Dr. J. S- Key and Dr. A. T. Mann,
both well known to Methodism in
Georgia, came in last night.
Walter B. Hill, Esq., of Macon,
and a prominent lawyer, is a lay-dele-
gate to tbe Conference. He is the
guest of Cspt. John A. Davis.
Col. J. M. Mathews, of Talbotton,
a prominent citizen and leading law
yer, is in attendance upon the Confer
ence as a lay-delegate.
The examination by the Bishop of
tho young preachers admitted into
full connection, was searching .to
wards them, and impressive upon the
Conference and audience.
Dr. A. G. Ilaygood, President of
Emory College, Oxford, Ga., is
the guest of Mr. H. (I. Tarver. He
will preach some time during the Con
ference. On Sunday lie will preach
cither morning or evening to the col
ored people.
The writer wishes that mimhers
more might have heard Bishop Kava
naugh > explanation and enforcement
of the great Wesleyan doctrine of
Christian perfection, incorporated in
his address to the class for admission
into full connection. It would have
removed erroneous ideas concerning
the doctrine, and commended it to ah
thinking Christians.
There was preaching at the Mctho
dial church Wednesday afternoon at 3
o’clock by Rev. L A. Darscy. At 7 p.
tn. Dr. J. S. Key preached, after
which, the sacrament of the Lord’s
supper was administered. This was
one of the most impressive services
Albany ever witnessed.
Albany bears the strain upon her
hospitality by the presence of nearly
two hundred of the Confcrenc-* dele
gates mid their friends with her usual
plain equanimity. Her citizens, whose
guests they are, are doing everything
in their power to make their stay
among us pleasant aud memorable.
Tncrc arc about 175 delegates in at
tendance.
Bishop Kavanaugh inteispcrsed .the
business of the Conference with many
flashes of wit and humor, relieving the
monotony of routine business.
The South Georgia Conference
convenes at Albany to-day. A very
large at tendance is expected, over 180
having notificdlhccommittee of their
intention to he there. Wc bespeak
tbe general desire of our |»eoplo when
wo express our hope that Rev. A. M
Wynn will be retained in his present
position. He bus a strong hold on
the whole community, and wc hope
that ho is as well satisfied to remain
u they are to have him do so. Ifo is
an earnest, able, faithful worker, and
has a heart full of Christian charily.—

Mitchell County Department
JAMES CALLAWAY, ..... EDITOR
CAMILLA, GA^ DEC. H
—Quftc a Icctiug of despondency
has taken bold of $e farmers of
Mitchell. The best labor has gone
to the turpentine orchards, leaving
the second-class labor for the farms.
Yet this character of labor, from Its
scarcity, commands high prices. Our
farmers and tlielr families practice a
wonderful self-denial. Their pleas
ure! aro few. They do not yield to
loving ease or self-indulgence, but
with a will-power, worthy of he
roes, they deprive themselves of the
luxuries ot life, and toll on from
year to year. But the despondency
arises from thq fact that'with all
their sacrifice and hard work the
chances for bettering their condition
seems to grow more dim. It is “all
work and no pay” that makes Jack a
dull boy.
, —The farmers adjacent to Camilla
arc casting about in their minds for
diversity of crops. Melons and
vegetables have not been tried to any
extent. Quite a number will expe
riment with Irish potatoes. Mr. T.
R. Bennett will plant six or ten acres.
—Senator Brown haa taken hold
of tho tax question. He has intro
duced a bill to wipe out all internal
taxation, and that the Government
derive its revenue from the tariff.
Wo are not prepared to discuss this
question. The position of the Sena
tor will lead to a high protective
tarifl, nnd a very high tariff to sup
plement the loss of the internal reven
ue. It was the policy of the Geor
gia delegation to reduce this protec
tive tariff so that the South would
secure the benefits of cheap and bet
ter goods from abroad, but this bill
gives another turn to the matter.
Which is better we do not know.
—Hon. II. G. Turner, we see from
the Congressional Record, succeeded
in passing the bill to refund to the
State of Georgia $35,555.42, money
expended by said State for the com
mon defense in 1777.
A number of Republicans thought
a debt over one hundred and five
years old should be barred by limi
tation. But it was contended that if
the debt was just a great government
should uot plead statute of limita
tion on her citizens, however old the
claim. It was not found necessary
to call in the services of Hon. W. O.
Tuggle, wc are glad to say.
— Gov. Stephens has seen fit to
pardon Cox, who murdered Bob Al
ston. We believe in sustaining Gov.
Stephens. It is agreed that he is
honest, but In this case we wish he
had shown mure of the stuff out of
which Milt Smith is made. The
murder of Alston was a notorious
crime. The facts have been before
the people. Crime is on the increase
in the State. Who can not hope now
for ultimate pardon after Cox is
pardoned ? There has been a party
In Georgia disposed to make a hero
and martyr of Cox. no hunted Al
ston up and shot him down. We sup
pose the principal keeper, who bare
ly escaped impeachment, and who
was reappointed to please the bosses,
Will now make Cox his chief assist
ant. Why not?
—We hope the press will remain
silcut about the big “donation.” Sen
ator Brown’s motives may have
been lofty, and he may rid the gift
of the peculiar features which rend
ered it so obnoxious and present it
to the School of Technology, which
Mr. Harris’ bill contemplates. The
reason that the conditions of the gift
aroused suspicions of far-reaching
sagacity for the future influence of
the.Brown family was the peculiar
limcol the gift. The Senator and Gov
Stephens had just come from Wash
ington City in the Senator's palace
car to Athens, and from Athens to
the Gubernatorial Convention. The
conditions were not known to tbe
public generally until the Legisla
ture diet, or perhaps the gift would
not have exerted such amoral sway
in the nomination of Mr. Stephens.
—Rev. Mr.. Clements, of this place,
has been transferred to the Ncrth
Georgia Conference. His applica
tion was based upon bad health.
Wc wish he could have remained
here. He lias been so acceptable to
the whole community. We think
the County Commissioners ought to
drain the big pond west of Camilla.
It used to not create sickness. But
now it is tiic receptacle for all the
washings of tiic town, and it must be
unhealthy. It can be ditched at a
cost of $200, and perhaps less. It
may produce that typhoid- fever
which lm.bcen so fatal here for sev
eral years.
